KGW Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Hi all,I should have done more checking and think I got scammed. I purchased about 540 XRP and had them sent to a wallet from myripplewalletonline.info. Changelly says the transaction went through in about 10 minutes. I see the transaction on the chain double checked then triple checked address and all info is correct but no xrp in wallet. Tried to use sites support and email with no response from them. How long should this take it has been 5 days no xrp. Have I been scammed? Is there any recourse? Thanks, maybe a lesson learned and possible heads up for someone else!!

I am new to XRP this was my first transaction. I will not use this address of course unless it is to empty the wallet in the event that my shows up. Ledger Nanao s Delivered today shouldn't have any more issues. Is there anything I am missing can I recover it? Again I hate to sound like a newbie caveman but I am!

I just made a quick registration on that web and it looks really shady (i.e. looking at the page scripts it's basically hard-coded to always return "invalid address" when trying to send XRP out). I've got the same address to load my account with a destination tag. According to the ledger data many people sent their XRP to that address with different destination tags. I couldn't quickly find your payment just by the amount you wrote. Maybe if you know source address of the wallet you sent from, you can find it on the ledger. Anyway I think your funds arrived OK, it's just this fishy service that lost it, or more likely stole it I'm sorry about your experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGW Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 It looks like the site is down today I have been trolling the crap out of them. There will be another site up in minutes probably but at least this one is gone. I feel sorry for the people that sent funds to them it looks like many thousands when I checked. I think I have a new hobby I will continue educate my self and look for these scum bags whenever and wherever I can. Should be a clearing house of vetting for these sites. Sounds like a business opportunity to me! Thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
